I appreciate what they tried to do with housing, to foster communities. Honestly, I think that they should have kept wards just for FCs and just put in the auto demo feature on FCs from the beginning. For personal housing I would have preferred they go instanced. Can you imagine the types of houses we could have then? The types of locations? I'd trade the community feel for being able to live in a remodeled floating Allagan habitat. A bubble of air and shards of land tethered hundreds of feet in the air and surrounded by whatever weather I chose.

Or what about living underwater in the Ruby Sea?

Dwelling in a cute chalet in Coerthas?

A beautiful Oasis surrounded by the corrupted aetherspires of the Burning Wall?

A private little realm all our own to customize as we wish would have been wonderful but it's a path that cannot be chosen now unfortunately.
